Check, clean the air filter, re-
place if necessary
!
Caution
A dirty oil filter obstructs the air flow to the carbu-
rettor, which then reduces the engine power.
In a dusty environment you should clean the air
filter every day.
Damaged air filters must be replaced in any case.
It is therefore recommended to keep at least one
air filter in stock.
The air filter must be changed after 500 operating
hours, but at the latest after 2 years.
Incorrectly handled filter cartridges may become
ineffective because of damage (e.g. cracks) and
cause damage to the engine.
